RCV001290521 | SCV001478573 | likely pathogenic | Cystic fibrosis | 2024-01-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: CFTR c.[2816A>G;2846A>T] (p.[His939Arg;His949Leu]) variant is a complex allele and involves the alteration of multiple nucleotides resulting in two non-conservative amino acid changes located in the ABC transporter type 1, transmembrane domain (IPR011527) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect for each of the individual variants on protein function. The complex allele c.[2816A>G;2846A>T] (p.[His939Arg;His949Leu]) was absent in 282786 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.[2816A>G;2846A>T] has been reported in the literature in at least one study of Caucasian CF subjects from Southern Italy describing four compound heterozygous individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis and one compound heterozygous individual with CFTR-related disorder (Polizzi_2011). It has been subsequently cited by others (e.g., Diana_2016, Paganin_2015). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact of this complex allele on CFTR protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 21931512, 26911355, 25898134). No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the complex allele variant c.[2816A>G;2846A>T] (p.[His939Arg;His949Leu]) was classified as likely pathogenic. |
